Hi - I think you may have gotten a detail wrong. According to their website, the jacket's insulation is made of VerticalX SuperStrand, which is Outdoor Research's patented synthetic insulator. It is supposed to be "the best of both worlds", simulating down's warmth, with synthetic's ability to retain warmth while wet.
You are correct! VerticalX Superstrand is actually a 100% synthetic insulation technology used in this hoodie. Appreciate you pointing this out! Here's more information on VerticalX if anyone is curious. www.outdoorresearch.com/blog/introducing-verticalx-superstrand-the-best-down-alternative-for-four-season-warmth
